Summer Solstice Yin + Sound Bath

Celebrate the arrival of summer in the warmth of a community summer ceremony at Nectar Retreat Centre. The Summer Solstice marks a special time to honour the sun and receive the generosity of Mother Earth. Led by Nectars creatrix, Andrea, this gathering invites a chance to express gratitude for the season and the evolving rhythms of nature. Andrea will guide you through an all-levels Yin yoga and functional movement class designed to mirror the the longest day of the year, officially welcoming the season of light on this Summer Solstice 2026 evening. Following the gentle movement practice, immerse yourself in a meditative, healing sound bath with crystal bowls and conclude with a guided silent relaxation period and gratitude circle.
ABOUT SOUNDBATHS
Just as a typical bath involves immersing oneself in water, a sound bath aims to envelop a person in the medium of sound. Typically featuring singing bowls made of metal or crystal, these instruments create resonant tones, similar to bells, when struck by a practitioner. Sound baths provide an immersive experience, filling the entire room and penetrating the bodies within the space with sound waves. These beneficial sound vibrations traverse the entire body; the resonance activates theta, alpha, and gamma brain waves, associated with relaxation, enhanced moods, and well-being of the mind, body, and spirit.
